A 14-year old Spartanburg County boy has admitted to deputies that he sexually assaulted and raped an 8-year-old girl, according to the Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office.

An incident report indicated that the girl's mother reported the abuse on Sept. 5. She told deputies that the girl had come to her saying the boy forced sex acts on her at their house in Woodruff and at the swimming pool next door.

The woman said the boy was a friend of her son's, the report said.

During a deposition on Sept. 10, the boy admitted to some of the abuse, but denied other claims, the report said. He also "admitted he knew it was wrong and that the victim was too young," the report said.

He was charged with first-degree criminal sexual conduct with a minor.

He's now in the custody of the South Carolina Department of Juvenile Justice in Columbia, according to the report.
